Near Shiocton and the Wolf River, Liberty is rural country with water never far off.
The Town of Liberty lies northwest of Appleton near Shiocton, where the Wolf River shapes the land. It's rural, open, and prone to the wet ground that comes with river-valley country.
We design Liberty landscapes around the water — managing drainage and erosion — and keep the rest durable and low-maintenance for country living.
River-valley ground means drainage first. We grade to move spring runoff, stabilize any low or eroding spots, and choose moisture-tolerant natives where the ground stays wet. Elsewhere, we keep the design durable and easy to maintain.
French drains, dry creek beds, rain gardens, and regrading that end standing water in our clay soil for good.
